  • wow, just over 3 hours later after reading that the new hamsters are available in the UK I have bought Jilly and Scoodles from TRU :j The return trip should have taken no more than an hour; however, due to a massive blizzard it has just taken me 3 hours. Really pleased that I have Jilly, my little girl will love her and Scoodles is for my nephew. I would have liked all 4 but TRU initially said it was only 1 per person but I managed to convince them to sell me 2 due to the weather conditions :D Thanks for the heads up :rudolf:

    hi folks

    have not been on here for ages, but when i saw the new hammies were out, i knew i just had to have jilly (for daughter - not me:D), any way tried local tru and they had all the new ones in but no jilly left, went onto ebay and found this £15.99 plus £3.00 postage

    http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Go-Go-Pets-ZHU-ZHU-Hamster-JILLY-Brand-New-In-Box_W0QQitemZ290383209999QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Toys_ElectronicPets_RL?hash=item439c30260f

    not me selling, but seems a very reasonable price and says will post in time for christmas and has 100% feedback, i am not one for promoting ebay but what with the weather and the fact that christmas day is almost upon us i couldnt think of any other way of getting her.

    anyway hope this helps someone. oh and the seller only has 4 left so be quick if you are desparate.

    cheers

    I think that would have worked out cheaper than the petrol I've just used in my 3 hour round trip to get Jilly ! My daughter is going to love her as she loves everything pink !!

    TRU at Teesside Park had all 4 new ones in tonight. They had quite a few left.

    toysrus cardiff have hundreds of the NEW hamsters on the shelves...as of half an hour ago!!!!

    :eek::eek: I know!!! I just went to my toysrus (Brent Cross, London) and there they were tons of them, just sitting on the shelf!!!!

    I couldn't believe my eyes. I wanted to buy all four :D but I resisted temptation and just bought one, winkie. I couldn't help myself :rolleyes:

    I haven't been on here for a few days as I've had my work Christmas party and other stuff going on BUT just wanted to update you all on my orders.

    Spanish Set - ordered in the early hours 10 December, they charged me £45; Arrived 14th December!!! Superb Service

    Play.com - ordered 2 funhouses at 17.99 each, on the 10th Dec (big shopping day for me) arrived 14th Dec

    ebay - ordered surf board and sleep dome, paid way over rrp £16 inc p&p on the 11th; arrived 14th Dec

    Then of course popped in to toysrus and picked up winkie :T

    So I am complete with my hamster hunt :T :T :T I was tempted to start hunting for the skateboard but as there's so much stuff coming out next year, I am going to hold my horses.

    Thanks so much to everyone on this forum for your hint's, tips and humour. I will still be reading away and dropping in the odd comment here and there but I can breathe a sigh of relief and let my obsession go :j:j
    Dreaming about 20/20 vision :rotfl:
